Giuliani to Endorse McCain

POSTED BY Raleigh-Elizabeth Smith, 30 January 2008

While the other GOP candidates gather for the last Republican debate before Super Tuesday, Giuliani will be packing up his presidential candidacy bags and heading home. On the way, he's lending his support to McCain:

As was the plan even before Rudy Giuliani's Florida firewall turned to ash, the former mayor will board a plane to California Wednesday morning.

 

But, sources told ABC News, once there, instead of participating in the Republican debate, he will drop out of the presidential race and endorse Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. While Giuliani did not announce that plan, his postelection speech to a modest crowd of supporters at the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel in Orlando delivered the message that his campaign was over fairly clearly.

After overlooking Iowa and banking on his summer polls and celebrity value, makes you think Giuliani would be well-served to read his own book on leadership.
